Both of those skates are from the bottom end of mission's product line. They won't be terrible but I don't think they will be very stiff. Generally as you go down the product line the skates get less stiff. I haven't skated in them personally so I don't know for sure but I would guess they are not as stiff as you might want.

You would probably be better of going with at least He 7500, Wicked 3, or Syndicate Lieutenant skate if you want a stiff boot. These are the second in line skates for model years 2006, 2007, and 2008. They will be plenty stiff and should be reasonably priced, especially if you go for the older ones on clearance.

Well, if Wicked 5s are stiff enough for you, you might be OK with the RMS. Like I said I haven't tried either but I do know that the Wicked 5s are pretty soft compared to what I would call stiff, either a Wicked 1 or a He10000.
